BEACH LAKE

— The Old Time Fiddlers of northeast PA will again host their annual fiddle festival on Sunday, Oct. 20.

The event will be held at the Beach Lake Fire Hall, Rt. 652, Beach Lake. Doors will open at 1 p.m., with music starting at 2. Fiddlers will have a 15 minute showcase to perform their favorite tunes and songs.

This is live traditional music at its best, featuring fiddlers and other musicians from the tri-state area.

Some of the styles represented are bluegrass, Old-time, Celtic, western swing and Canadian. Requests are encouraged from the audience. Refreshments will be available throughout the day. The fire hall is handicap accessible.

The Old Time Fiddlers (a non-profit organization) are celebrating 34 years of performing and promoting traditional music in the area. This music is part of the heritage in this area so they encourage everyone to come out and support it.

It’s the last event for 2013 and they hope to see many friends gathered for the day.
